Established on the eastern bank of the River Exe, Exeter is steeped in history and the tour will visit places which witnessed the stories of local tribes and Roman soldiers in the Empire’s most westerly British outpost. You will follow their footsteps through the centre of Exeter, which later became a very affluent medieval centre of the wool trade, as well as a religious centre, and now is a vibrant city, enriched by a mixture of architectural styles, from the eleventh century Cathedral to the contemporary Princesshay Shopping Centre.
The highlight of your visit will undoubtedly be the breath-taking gothic Cathedral with its history and stories. Finishing at Exeter Quay, which charts the maritime legacy of Exeter, the tour will leave you appreciating why Exeter is often rated one of the best UK cities to live, work and study.
